It’s just a test subject.
Yes, that’s right. Should a scientist be attached to a lab rat?
As a scientist, you have to kill your emotions for yourself and for humanity and conduct experiments objectively and logically.
However, Se-woon felt a subtle change in Baek-hyun’s speech.
‘Was that your original personality?’
No. Baekhyun wasn’t like that when we first talked in the tutorial.
After learning necromancy from Se-un, the person who handled the undead more preciously than anyone else was Baek-hyun.
Even while conducting experiments and using corpse explosions, he never lost his ‘respect’.
‘It has changed.’
Should a scientist become attached to a lab rat?
Can a scientist love lab rats?
Can not be done.
As a scientist, you must kill such emotions and conduct rigorous experiments.
However, we must not forget to be grateful and respectful to the laboratory rats who lose their precious lives for themselves and for humanity.
Although it is an immoral act and forces sacrifice without asking permission, the feeling must not be forgotten.
If you lose that feeling, you are no longer a scientist.
monster.
He was nothing more than a monster who prank-killed the remaining reserve lab rats, claiming that the experiment had ended earlier than expected.
“I changed my mind.”
“Yes? Are you busy with something?”
“No. Instead of an experiment, how about we have a long-awaited duel?”
Se-un took out the Durangdal from its scabbard.
I wanted to help Baekhyun understand the subtle difference in emotions, but I didn’t have the confidence to make him understand with words.
Persuasion that doesn’t reach the person concerned will only cause more confusion.
And Se-Woon was always more accustomed to making others understand through actions rather than words.
“Dalsyeon… … I see.”
Baekhyun nodded.
He seemed a little hesitant, but he didn’t seem to have any intention of avoiding the duel.
Instead, he immediately unleashed his power, opened a subspace, and prepared for battle by releasing his forces.
“I remember my first fight with Se-un. It was a long time ago, but I learned a lot from it.”
Se-un recalled the past.
The reason Se-woon asked Baek-hyun to spar at that time was because he was too obsessed with the undead.
It’s natural for a necromancer to be consumed by the undead, but that doesn’t mean he should give up on his own development.
Necromancers must develop their own skills as well as their summons.
You must realize that your undead army can only function if you are confident, and you must know how to command your army through black magic as well as your own means of protection.
Se-Woon in the past had a duel with Baek-Hyeon for that.
“Geuuuuuuuu-”
Baekhyun’s undead howled fiercely.
There were so many of them that the mere sound of them crying made the ground tremble.
If it were a formal duel, it would be unfair to align the undead army before the battle even begins, but isn’t he a necromancer?
It’s only natural for a necromancer to bring out the undead.
It was as if Seun took out the Durangdal and circulated the internal energy of his danjeon throughout his body, then rotated the mana circle to warm it up.
So, when all of Baekhyun’s preparations were finished.
“Are you ready?”
“Thank you for waiting.”
“Then, right away!”
Taat!
Se-un kicked the seat.
No, I tried to kick it.
The problem is that, unlike usual, in this match, it was not Se-woon but Baek-hyun who made the first move.
Fuzz.
“Geuuuuuu!”
Dozens of palms burst through the floor.
They swung around to grab Seun’s ankles, one of them successfully grabbing Seun’s trouser hem.
‘when?’
I didn’t feel any movement.
Even Seun’s senses, which are equipped with Mammon’s treasure, cannot detect any movement.
In a moment of panic, the scene where Baekhyun’s zombies were howling before the battle started came to mind.
‘Have you been preparing this since then?’
At that moment, Baekhyun’s undead howled madly, blocking Se-woon’s hearing.
He stamped his feet and shook the ground, masking the tremors underground.
In the first place, all of those undead were under Baekhyun’s command. This means that they didn’t act like that without any reason.
The moment Se-woon quickly swung his sword and cut off the zombie’s wrist, Baek-hyun clenched his fist.
“Body explosion.”
Phew!!
The zombies in the underground exploded.

It was originally designed to catch an opponent underground and explode, and its explosive power was twice that of a normal zombie.
Flesh and dirt shards hurled at Seun like shrapnel from a grenade.
The moment a huge cloud of dust rose, Sehun flew up through the dust.
‘That was almost dangerous.’
An unexpected preemptive strike.
If I hadn’t jumped right away after realizing Baekhyun’s corpse exploded, I would have been hit.
And, Baekhyun’s attack wasn’t over. Rather, it was just the beginning.
“Kaaaaaa-”
The flying undead that had been waiting in the sky in advance flapped their wings and aimed for Seun.
Anything that could fly, including bats, birds, and specters, was gathering together to target Seun.
The problem is that this is the sky.
Generally, those who are lifted into the air are no longer able to evade their bodies, and are thus helplessly exposed to enemy attacks.
However, the opponent is Seun.
– The attribute power of ‘Turn Undead’ increases according to the secret of the White Tower.
A white light emanated from Seun’s body.
Turn Undead, the power to strike down evil beings.
The undead screamed as they could no longer approach the splendid aura.
The wings are burning and the skin is peeling off as if it were burned.
At that moment, Baekhyun’s soft voice was heard.
“Dark veil.”
At the same time, black fog spread across the battlefield.
The fog that had been writhing as if alive began to dominate the sky, and the darkness was so intense that it even swallowed up the light emanating from Seun’s body.
“Kaaa-”
As the power of the Turn Undead weakened, the undead that had been moving away came to their senses and charged again.
And Baekhyun’s magic didn’t end there.
“Overload.”
One of the representative magic of the necromancer. It is a magic that temporarily overloads one’s undead to increase their physical abilities.
The undead approaching Seun began to fly with even greater ferocity, their muscles bulging as if they were about to explode at any moment.
‘It’s not a general formula.’
Overlord was a black magic that Seun had previously revealed during his duel with Baekhyun, along with Ghost Breath.
Because Seun-do knows a lot about Overlord, but even as an Overlord, it wasn’t to this extent.
Overload is a black magic that overloads the body to the limit, befitting the nature of undead who cannot feel pain.
However, the Overload that Baekhyun was using right now was pushing the undead beyond its limits.
Instead of collapsing the undead beyond their limits, the formula has been changed to maximize their physical abilities.
“Ghost Breath.”
Baekhyun then uses the second black magic he learned from Se-woon.
The lion’s breath covered Seun and paralyzed his body.
A perfect match, indeed.
Seeing one of the Specters turn to dust and disappear next to Baekhyun, it seems that this magic also used the undead as a catalyst to amplify its effects.
In that desperate situation.
– The stigmata react to the tale of the Blood Wolf Legend.
– The second ability of the stigmata, ‘Frenzy’, awakens.
Seun’s stigmata shone.
The lion’s breath hardened his body, but his physical abilities, strengthened by the power of madness, forcibly distorted the paralysis.
Taat!
Seun’s combined technique of ‘Hojeop Gliding’, which combines the techniques of ‘Honggongdapbo’ and ‘Honggongdapbo’, allows him to kick the air, get into a stable posture, and apply power to his sword.
– Blood Wolf Sword Technique’s sacrificial ritual, Blood Wolf Roar, is strengthened through internal energy.
Seun’s body spinning like a top.
The sword energy that Durangdal emitted as it roared spread out in all directions and covered the horde of undead.
“Haha, you are indeed strong. It was a move that I thoroughly prepared for.”
Se-woon leaped towards Baek-hyun, trampling on the falling undead.
Naturally, dozens of undead blocked his path.
Skeleton, an undead whose entire body is made of bones.
Then, Seun took hold of the new magic he had used, Shining Blade, and swung it without mercy.
“Gyagyagyagya!”
With each swing, several skeletons are shattered into pieces.
Dozens, no, over a hundred skeletons could not stop Seun’s path.
Just as my vision became filled with skeleton fragments, Baekhyun’s voice was heard once again.
“Bone prison.”
Thousands of bone fragments spread out in the air gathered around Seun.
Even a simple black magic spell that uses skeleton bones to create a prison can vary greatly in power depending on the strength of the necromancer.
Woof-
Seun also found even stronger power.
Rather than holding the Shining Blade, the essence of its magic was contained within Durandal.
A harmony of magic and martial arts.
He swung that mighty power fiercely with a body strengthened by the power of madness.
“Gyagyagyaeng-”
The bone prison that had been squeezing Seun disappeared without a trace.
Seun didn’t stop there and added new magic to Durandal.
– The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[ Shining Shower ]
– It creates a great miracle by dropping crystals of light like a meteor shower to annihilate evil beings.
Shining shower.
A brilliant meteor shower that should have originally fallen from the sky.
Kuuuu-!!
It spread forward following Seun’s sword.
The magic of the 8 circles was condensed, the range was reduced, and the movement was made according to the sword strike, increasing its power, so its destructive power was beyond imagination.
Plus, the opponent is undead.
It was nearly impossible to withstand the 8-circle magic of the light attribute.
“Kuwaaaaak-!”
The one who stood in front of Baekhyun to block the attack was Saha’s predator.
It was a giant crocodile monster that was killed by Seun in the Battle of Skabe and raised by Baekhyun.
The guy who had his whole body covered in a black veil and his crocodile skin hardened by the magic Baekhyun used blocked Seun’s attack with his whole body.
“I expected it, but it’s really ridiculous.”
The opponent was bad.
Baekhyun may be considered the best in the Diablo Guild in one-on-many battles, but he is not the best in one-on-one battles.
No matter how much he consumed the undead and caught them by the ankle, it was difficult to catch strong people like Seun, Kang Han-cheol, or Yoo Seo-ah with his methods.
“Kuwa- ah-”
It was torn apart by the body of the Saha predator.
Baekhyun desperately tried to block the Shining Shower by wrapping himself in the armor he had seen, but he soon gave up the fight.
As soon as the body of the Saha predator disappeared as if it was evaporating, Seun jumped out and swung his sword.
Phew!
Soon, the eerie sensation of the tip of the sword piercing flesh was felt in Seun’s hand as he rode the moon.
This was not a sensation felt through Baekhyun’s body.
“purr…….”
“… … Manti?”
